The SEO Checker audits one page. Behind the scenes SkySiteAudit:
- Validates the address and refuses private or internal networks.
- Reads
/robots.txtand discovers sitemaps. - Fetches the page (following up to 10 redirects, each one re-checked) and parses the HTML.
- Checks up to 25 internal links on the page for errors.
- Loads the page once in headless Chromium with mobile emulation for lab performance and mobile layout checks.
- Checks whether http:// redirects to https:// and whether www/non-www are consolidated.
Results are saved at a private, unguessable address. Visitor reports are deleted after 30 days.
Why does a check say "Not measured"? The data wasn't available — for example the page isn't HTML, the browser couldn't load it, or robots.txt returned an error. Those checks are excluded from the score.
